Why Tour With Marzi?

  • Indian tour guide on every trip – An experienced Travel Mitr is part of every trip — speaks both Hindi and English.
  • The right group, the right size – Small, curated groups. Everyone on the trip is 50+, so you'll be with like-minded travelers at the same stage of life, all looking to explore, relax, and enjoy good company.
  • 24x7 Doctor support – A health check before the trip, and a doctor on call throughout.
  • Vegetarian food you'll enjoy – All 3 meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) are Indian and vegetarian-friendly.
  • Safe for solo travelers – Traveling alone or a single woman? You'll be well looked after and never feel out of place.
  • Door to door – International & domestic flights, visa, all private transfers, cabs from and to home, and guided sightseeing — everything is handled, you just show up and have fun.

Highlights

  • Shri Ram Janmabhoomi darshan – Stand before one of India's most sacred sites, with an unhurried, guided visit that lets the moment truly sink in. 4.8/5 (TripAdvisor) — Top 4 place to visit!
  • Ganga & Saryu aarti, front and centre – As hundreds of oil lamps flicker across the water and chants rise into the evening air, you're seated comfortably — no jostling for a view, just the ceremony unfolding right in front of you. Varanasi's most-visited spot. 4.5/5 (TripAdvisor)
  • Sunrise on the Ganga – Glide past centuries-old ghats as the city wakes and the sky turns gold — a quiet, boat-side start to the day that stays with you long after.
  • Kashi Vishwanath & Sarnath – From the energy of one of Shiva's holiest shrines to the stillness of the spot where Buddha gave his first sermon — two sides of India's spiritual soul, in one day. Travellers' Choice "Best of the Best" 2026.
